Despite recent criticism of Hillary Clinton on her emails and on her Clinton Foundation raising of funds from nations that abuse women, and her image of being too close to Wall Street, and too “Hawkish” in foreign policy, a new polling indicates that she is very strong, and way ahead of any of her Republican Presidential opponents for 2016.
The polls shows that Hillary Clinton does well among basic Democratic constituencies who supported Barack Obama twice, but also does BETTER among other constituencies which were not as strong for President Barack Obama, as she is demonstrating she is at this point of the Presidential campaign.
Clinton does much better among the following:
Suburban voters
Working Class Whites
Women
These are crucial voting groups, with the first two groups particularly a lot stronger for Hillary than Barack Obama, while women supported Obama, but not as strong as Hillary does.
And then, there is the group that is unique to Hillary Clinton in their emotional support: the so called “Clintonites”, those totally loyal and fanatical to everything Clinton, who love and adore her husband Bill Clinton, see no wrong in anything the Clintons say or do, and who feel that Hillary Clinton was robbed, denied, what she was entitled to in 2008—the White House!
With this strength among these groups, it now seems, at least for the time being, that Hillary Clinton, despite faults and shortcomings, is on a steam roller that will not be able to be stopped by any Republican nominee for the White House!
It also shows the likelihood that Hillary Clinton could win more states and electoral votes than Barack Obama did in 2012, with a declining white population participation, and a growing minority population participation, estimated to be a 70-30 split in 2016, as compared to 72-28 in the 2012 Presidential campaign.
Ted Cruz has announced that he’s running. http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/ted-cruz-im-running-president
I heard that some of the students at Liberty were forced to attend his speech. You could see in the video that not all the crowd was clapping enthusiastically.
Ha. Ha. I hear he’s signing up for Obamacare.

My local paper’s question of the week asks readers if they would vote for Ted Cruz for President. Because it’s a very conservative area, most of the readers are voting “Yes” to that.
Eyes rolling! LOL
Now a lot of “No’s” are voting in the poll.
